i have a hunting trip tomorrow what can i expect from the activity due to rain, its a night hunt

Hogs will move in the rain. Things might slow down if it storms really bad, but if it's just off an on rain you'll be fine.. Might even help a little. Good luck

During any 24 hour period, hogs are going to move. I have shot some very nice hogs between bands of heavy rain or after a night of heavy rain.

Rain does not stop hogs. It may slow some of the activity, but nothing will stop them from eating. The only question is whether there is something they want where you are.

prefer hunting hogs in a slight drizzle/ light rain

seem to move more IMO

X1000!!

if hogs were moving yesterday. we didn't see any. i got cheap posts

hogs must be eating under cover of darkness, or we solved the problem here.

Sometimes the softening of the ground caused by rain makes it easier for the hogs to root. My perception is that the soft ground makes the hogs more active, but ymmv.

softening of ground. as pappy always say's: proof tis in de pudding has pud more dan one idiot stick ta rest while working in dry ground. tis much easier whin wet. hogs be rooting for grubs & such. if ya got deer corn on the ground they be after dat. good point

Unless it is a heavy downpour I have not noticed any difference in hog activity when its raining.

I just killed two 20 minutes after 4 straight hours of rain! As long as the wind aint howling and the rain aint blowing sideways...dont sweat it!

Ill post my kills in another post...go kill some bacon and good luck!

In addition to the ground being softer, the rain will also bring up grubs and may also bring scent from other things that are below the surface.
Edges of waterways that tend to spill out and accumulate debris in pools or eddies and also where water is left standing after the receding water, these will tend to have active rooting.

Hogs like the wet....... we saw 50 the other night killed 5...... but they are not always where you want them to be.

ing with ansroid. third time posting. tis also best time ta dig with posthole digger, fill with corn & desiel & wait till hogs come back & make it bigger. i've been tested actualy Kbar tis right. hogs will follow the creek beds & streams wetter areas tis were ya find the rooting activity. as pappy always say's: proof tis in de pudding . enjoy the hunt, stay Safe

Here is a picture I took today. To my left is a flowing creek.
In front and to the right are houses built out of the floodplain.
The oak trees on the right and those directly ahead had a bumper crop of acorns in 2012.
Circled are 2 of the three areas that have been rooted since Thursday.
Also note that there is a distinct line running from left to right on the far area.
This is a property line.
The lot with the rooting on it and the one I was standing in were mowed on Wednesday just prior to the rains.
I dealt with this subdivision in 2013.
Hogs would NOT TOUCH CORN, no matter how you served it. Plain, sour, with kool aid, jello or diesel.... it didnt matter. I even told one lady to let me borrow a silver platter and she laughed.

We ended up hunting the rain, moon, and the mowing schedule and killed over 25 animals out of this and the adjoining estate on the other side of the creek.

So sometimes you gotta think outside the box and see what is making them tick. I honestly thing mowing, shreading, or fresh cut grass is a big player in it.

dang, first lease was on part of it stayed wet, again, ing with android. pic is just a blue square with a ? mark. ya had ta have knee boots ta get ta a stand. had a 5gallen bucket with PVC pipe into a T. it held 50# bag of corn. an hung from a 3" limb. put 50# out at night, in morning ya couldn't find a curnal of corn, & after about a week of this, bucket was on ground. Hogs. an their were a lot of acorns their too. learned something new. first time heard of that. maybe them hogs put corn with hunters. cool post.

ya'll have any luck? if ya find were hogs been rooting, can kick along side in dirt, & compair. looping at the fresh kicked dirt, it have two shades of color. top & the under part usualy darker. spent many hours & miles not seeing hogs, then get lucky. some areas hold more hogs than others, & pressure plays part also. best wishes, have fun & Safe hunting
